Pride Parade 2026 photos are here!

We had an amazing time together, sharing God’s love all along the route. We even spotted a rainbow over the French Quarter (see photo)!

We celebrated God's love for all people and lived out the promise of the Episcopal Church: All are welcome.

Bishop Duckworth invites you to the 4th Annual EDOLA Acolyte Festival!

Acolytes (and those who would like to possibly become acolytes) of all ages will enjoy a time of conversation and sharing with Bishop Duckworth and other diocesan acolyte leaders about this important ministry of service to God's people.

There will be special opportunities for adults and older youth to learn about the specialized ministries of serving as Verger (master of Ceremony) and Thurifer (incense bearer).

We’re thrilled to see Bishop Duckworth highlighted on NOLA.com! In this interview she reflects on why preaching remains central to her ministry, the importance of proclaiming the Gospel, and what it has meant to be welcomed by the Diocese of Louisiana as its first female bishop. Read and share this Good News!

The Right Rev. Shannon Rogers Duckworth reflects on her role, touching on topics ranging from politics to the health of the Episcopal Church.

Pride Mass 2026 at St. Anna's Episcopal Church! Our diocese once again gathered in worship and celebration for a Spirit-filled Pride Mass. At the heart of this liturgy is a simple but profound commitment: to place the LGBTQ+ community not at the margins, but front and center. That centering is itself an act of welcome, and it was felt throughout the celebration.

Read the full story + see more photos!

A fabulous turnout for Pride Mass 2026 at St. Anna's Episcopal Church.
